In a recent report, Vozpopuli stated that Real Madrid are eyeing a late move for Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe this month. It is believed that Los Blancos are working on a deal to bring the French talent to the Spanish capital before the end of this transfer window.
Mbappe’s Impressive Record In French Football Last Season
Mbappe had another outstanding campaign at Parc des Princes recently as he put in several match-winning displays for PSG in Ligue 1. The France international banged in 41 goals and picked up ten assists in 43 matches for the French outfit last season in all competitions.
The 24-year-old was a joy to watch in the final third and deserves a ton of credit for averaging 4.4 shots, 1.6 key passes and 2.2 dribbles per 90 minutes in Ligue 1. He was even careful when distributing the ball in the opponent’s half after completing 82.9% of his attempted passes in top-flight football (stats via whoscored).
His current contract at the French club will expire in the summer of 2024. Hence, Los Blancos could potentially land him for a reduced fee this month.
Is Mbappe A Dream Signing For Real Madrid Boss Carlo Ancelotti?
Mbappe is proficient at finding space for himself to get some strikes in on-target. He remains a deadly finisher in the final third and can also engineer a few promising chances for his teammates in the opposition half. The French talent can use his quickness to leave his marker to bite the dust out in the wide areas. Furthermore, he is versatile enough to play anywhere across the frontline.
Someone with Mbappe’s skillset will no doubt enhance the quality of Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti’s first XI. He could make Los Blancos the favorites to win the UEFA Champions League trophy once again this season. At 24, the French sensation has got his prime years ahead of him.
Thus, Mbappe would be a dream signing for the Madrid giants to pull off during this summer transfer window. He would be a perfect replacement for Karim Benzema who parted ways with Real Madrid earlier this year. Furthermore, he would help Los Blancos win even more major honours over the next decade.
